The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, wishes to alert the
general public about the activities of some unscrupulous elements who
have cashed in on the plan by the Commission to recruit more personnel
to defraud unsuspecting job seekers. In recent weeks, some unscrupulous
online portals have featured advertisements supposedly from the EFCC,
inviting applications for employment into the service of the Commission.
One of such advertisements appeared in Forum Nigeria, with the link, http://forumng.com/ng/forum/279564/nigeria-efcc-recruitment-
informing job seekers that “application form is out”, and advising them
to contact a GSM number, for further information and registration
guideline.
The
Commission wishes to dissociate itself from these advertorials. For the
avoidance of doubt, there is no recruitment currently going on in the
EFCC. The announcement by the Chairman of the Commission, Ibrahim Magu,
that the EFCC intends to recruit more staff remain a proposal which is
yet to be approved. The Commission therefore advises job seekers to be
wary of any vacancy announcement online and report any solicitation for
money in exchange of job placement in the EFCC, to the nearest police
station.
Vacancies in the Commission are normally advertised in major newspapers or on our official website http://www.efccnigeria.org/ and not through proxy or online portals.
